“Didn’t you just say that you had plans?” Angeline asked in confusion.

“This is my plan. I’d rather be alone with you than have dinner with everyone else…”

“Angel!”

The blissful expression on Jacob’s face from imagining his romantic alone time with Angeline was broken by a young girl’s voice.

Angeline whipped her head around and saw Floretta standing there. She was carrying a duck-shaped backpack and had her hair braided into two pigtails.

Angeline broke into a wide grin. “Did you come here by yourself, Floretta?”

Angeline forgot about Jacob instantly and ran over to hug Floretta, caressing her little face gently.

“No. I missed you so much, so I begged Daddy to send me here.”

When she heard that, Angeline stiffened up. She looked around but didn’t see Evander.

“Where’s your daddy?”

“He left as soon as I got here. He said he still has work to do and Francesca will pick me up later,” Floretta replied obediently.

Angeline’s expression darkened. He’s probably unwilling to come because of what happened at the party.

Although it had been over half a month, it still felt awkward whenever she thought about it.

“Jac, I know you finished your scenes today, so I got you a present,” Floretta said excitedly.

As soon as she stepped onto the film set, her eyes never left Jacob.

“What did you get me?” he asked gently.

“Tada!” She pulled out a cartoon figurine of Jacob from her bag. “Is it cute?”
